    One of the best things about this new truck is... no DEF! That alone will take away lots of headache.
    That truck once it has been brought back to life, will make a lot of $ and it will out last the new fancy and full of BS sensors and such new age trucks.
    Congrats and stay safe,

    I commend you for keeping the old trucks alive. The smog laws against the trucking industry have gotten out of hand, and I don't see how it can be stopped other than by a massive owner operator strike.
    PS: Your Freightliner looks naked without some long tool boxes on each side my friend.

    The Pete is a diamond in the rough...sitting idle for a couple of years hasn’t helped it any, but I’m sure you can restore it and make it work for you! At least it has a Cat engine in it. Cats are more expensive to operate, but if it’s a good one, it will last you longer than a Cummins. I’m a bit Cat lover, but I’ve found some Detroit Series 60 experiences to be quite encouraging. I’m gonna keep my eyes on this truck...it has such potential! I was excited to see the boom come out...it sure brought some good memories of when I would take a backup truck out to my brother and haul a broken one back to the shop. I’m glad that you had someone following you, especially since you didn’t have the light bar. You made it home safely and that’s the important thing! Blessings! 🤩

    Met a fella over in Ohio. He had scored a old truck with a Mac engine fitted in. Had only 40,000 miles on the engine. He cleaned, painted, and shined the old girl up. She was absolutely gorgeous and powerful. He is a old timer and run local and regional mostly. Respect you elders because they maybe old but they are giants!

    The Peterbilt looks like a promising truck 🚛 to add to your fleet, back when I was driving coast to coast it would be like a diamond in the sky if I had something like it to drive, I fought those old 318 Internationals miles and miles. Hold em in the road 🛣️.

    That Peterbilt looks really good now. I can definitely see it all cleaned up and on the road. Be sweet to see a video of the fleet you have now and what is being added. Got a great looking fleet. I agree that the government is pushing a bit too much trying to get the emissions junk on trucks and even small vehicles. I think they should slow down on the emissions. Not everyone can afford brand new vehicles with all that garbage. I'll stick with the older stuff as long as I can.
